    Yea a caretaker shouldn’t be trying to revolutionize a team, unless this is what the eventual full-time coach does. As far as I know, Carlos Ancelotti teams don’t play like that. They are closer to Tite’s ways of working ironically

      Ancelotti’s teams are more relational than the average current team and more so that 2022 Tite.

      A lot of Brazilians look at Ancelotti’s willingness to give up the ball and Diniz’s obsession with building from the back and conclude that the two are miles apart.

      From what I’ve seen of actual analysts, their perspective is more focused on how the coaches allow their players to move and relate to each other (or to space). In that sense Diniz and Ancelotti are not the complete opposites some people think they are.
